| 2 | Surgical management of peritonitis secondary to acute superior mesenteric artery occlusion显示文摘Diagnosis of acute arterial mesenteric ischemia in the early stages is now possible using modern computed tomography with intravenous contrast enhancement and imaging in the arterial and/or portal phase.Most patients have acute superior mesenteric artery(SMA)occlusion,and a large proportion of these patients will develop peritonitis prior to mesenteric revascularization,and explorative laparotomy will therefore be necessary to evaluate the extent and severity of intestinal ischemia,and to perform bowel resections.The establishment of a hybrid operating room in vascular units in hospitals is most important to be able to perform successful intestinal revascularization.This review outlines current frontline surgical strategies to improve survival and minimize bowel morbidity in patients with peritonitis secondary to acute SMA occlusion.Explorative laparotomy needs to be performed first.Curative treatment is based upon intestinal revascularization followed by bowel resection.If no vascular imaging has been carried out,SMA angiography is performed.In case of embolic occlusion of the SMA,open embolectomy is performed followed by angiography.In case of thrombotic occlusion,the occlusive lesion can be recanalized retrograde from an exposed SMA,the guidewire snared from either the femoral or brachial artery,and stented with standard devices from these access sites.Bowel resections and sometimes gall bladder removal due to transmural infarctions are performed at initial laparotomy,leaving definitive bowel reconstructions to a planned second look laparotomy,according to the principles of damage control surgery.Patients with peritonitis secondary to acute SMA occlusion should be managed by both the general and vascular surgeon,and a hybrid revascularization approach is of utmost importance to improve outcomes. | Stefan Acosta | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,29: | 14 |

| 4 | Inflammatory and oxidative stress in rotavirus infection显示文摘Rotaviruses are the single leading cause of life-threatening diarrhea affecting children under 5 years of age. Rotavirus entry into the host cell seems to occur by sequential interactions between virion proteins and various cell surface molecules. The entry mechanisms seem to involve the contribution of cellular molecules having binding, chaperoning and oxido-reducing activities. It appears to be that the receptor usage and tropism of rotaviruses is determined by the species, cell line and rotavirus strain. Rotaviruses have evolved functions which can antagonize the host innate immune response, whereas are able to induce endoplasmic reticulum(ER) stress, oxidative stress and inflammatory signaling. A networking between ER stress, inflammation and oxidative stress is suggested, in which release of calcium from the ER increases the generation of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species(ROS) leading to toxic accumulation of ROS within ER and mitochondria. Sustained ER stress potentially stimulates inflammatory response through unfolded protein response pathways. However, the detailed characterization of the molecular mechanisms underpinning these rotavirus-induced stressful conditions is still lacking. The signaling events triggered by host recognition of virusassociated molecular patterns offers an opportunity for the development of novel therapeutic strategies aimed at interfering with rotavirus infection. The use of N-acetylcysteine, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and PPARγ agonists to inhibit rotavirus infection opens a new way for treating the rotavirus-induced diarrhea and complementing vaccines. | Carlos A Guerrero Orlando Acosta | 2016 | World Journal of Virology2016,5,2: | 12 |
| 5 | 地理信息系统技术在伤寒发热监测中应用显示文摘目的运用地理信息系统(GIS)技术,了解各居民点发热流行率和评价以医疗机构为哨点的伤寒发热监测系统的敏感性。方法收集医学人口普查数据、疾病监测系统信息数据、现场采集居民居住点全球卫星定位数据等资料,建立GIS系统和以人口为基数的发热监测系统;对所有发热就诊病人进行身份和居住地址确认,并制作各居民点年发热就诊率GIS分布图。结果共采集3776个居民居住的全球定位系统(GPS)定位点,人群发热就诊率为1.11‰,发热就诊人次占总门诊人次的16.3%,监测区内的发热就诊病人占所有发热就诊病人的83.5%。在3种类型的医疗机构中,门诊量以个体门诊类最多,但其发热就诊人次占总门诊人次的比率最低(12.6%)。监测区内发热1d或以上的病人地址和身份(ADDRESS-ID)确认率达到95%。根据居民点年发热就诊率GIS分布图,发热就诊率最高的居民点达到17.81‰,最低为0;发热就诊率高的居民点多集中在城市。结论利用GIS技术可直观准确的了解疾病流行率的分布,可迅速直观的寻找出监测系统中的薄弱环节和推断出可能存在的问题。 | 杨进 董柏青 张杰 廖和壮 梁大斌 吴兴华 司国爱 杨宏徽 Jin Kyung Park R Leon Ochiai Camilo J Acosta Moharmmad Ali John D Clemens | 2007 | 中国公共卫生2007,23,9: | 8 |
| 6 | An Analysis of the Inverse Kinematics for a 5-DOF Manipulator显示文摘This paper proposes an analytical solution for a 5-DOF manipulator to follow a given trajectory while keeping the orientation of one axis in the end-effector frame. The forward kinematics and inverse kinematics for a 5-DOF manipulator are analyzed systemically. The singular problem is discussed after the forward kinematics is provided. For any given reachable position and orientation of the end-effector, the derived inverse kinematics will provide an accurate solution. In other words, there exists no singular problem for the 5-DOF manipulator, which has wide application areas such as welding, spraying, and painting. Experiment results verify the effectiveness of the methods developed in this paper. | Carlos A. Acosta Calderon John Q. Gan | 2005 | International Journal of Automation and computing2005,2,2: | 7 |

| 9 | Enhancing endogenous stem cells in the newborn via delayed umbilical cord clamping显示文摘There is currently no consensus among clinicians and scientists over the appropriate or optimal timing for umbilical cord clamping. However, many clinical studies have suggested that delayed cord clamping is associated with various neonatal benefits including increased blood volume, reduced need for blood transfusion, increased cerebral oxygenation in pre-term infants, and decreased frequency of iron deficiency anemia in term infants. Human umbilical cord blood contains significant amounts of stem and progenitor cells and is currently used in the treatment of several life-threatening diseases. We propose that delayed cord clamping be encouraged as it enhances blood flow from the placenta to the neonate, which is accompanied by an increase supply of valuable stem and progenitor cells, as well as may improve blood oxygenation and increase blood volume, altogether reducing the infant's susceptibility to both neonatal and age-related diseases. | Christopher Lawton Sandra Acosta Nate Watson Chiara Gonzales-Portillo Theo Diamandis Naoki Tajiri Yuji Kaneko Paul R.Sanberg Cesar V.Borlongan | 2015 | Neural Regeneration Research2015,10,9: | 6 |
| 10 | Helicobacter pylori CagA protein polymorphisms and their lack of association with pathogenesis显示文摘AIM: To investigate Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) CagA diversity and to evaluate the association between protein polymorphisms and the occurrence of gastric pathologies. METHODS: One hundred and twenty-two clinical isolates of H. pylori cultured from gastric biopsies obtained from Colombian patients with dyspepsia were included as study material. DNA extracted from isolates was used to determine cagA status, amplifying the C-terminal cagA gene region by polymerase chain reaction. One hundred and six strains with a single amplicon were sequenced and results were used to characterize the 3' variable region of the cagA gene. To establish the number and type of tyrosine phosphorylation motifs Glutamine acid-Proline-Isoleucine-Tyrosine-Alanine (EPI-YA) bioinformatic analysis using Amino Acid Sequence Analyzer-Amino Acid Sequence Analyzer software was conducted. Analysis of the association between the number of EPIYA motifs and the gastric pathology was performed using χ2 test and analysis of the presence of EPIYA-C motifs in relation to the pathology was made by logistic regression odds ratios. Comparisons among EPIYA types found and those reported in GenBank were performed using a proportion test in Statistix Analytical Software version 8.0. RESULTS: After amplification of the 3' of the cagA gene, 106 from 122 isolates presented a single amplicon and 16 showed multiple amplicons. As expected, diversity in the size of the cagA unique fragments among isolates was observed. The 106 strains that presented a single amplicon after 3' cagA amplification came from patients with gastritis (19 patients), atrophic gastritis (21), intestinal metaplasia (26), duodenal ulcer (22) and gastric cancer. DNA sequence analysis showed that the differences in size of 3' cagA unique fragments was attributable to the number of EPIYA motifs: 1.9% had two EPIYA motifs, 62.3% had three, 33.0% had four and 2.8% had five motifs. The majority of tested clinical strains (62.3%) were found to harbor the ABC combination of EPIYA motifs and a significant statistical difference was observed between the frequencies of ABCC tyrosine phosphorylation motifs and Western strains sequences deposited in GenBank. CONCLUSION: The present report describes a lack of association between H. pylori CagA-protein polymorphisms and pathogenesis. ABCC high frequency variations compared with Western-strains sequences deposited in GenBank require more investigation. | Nicole Acosta Andrés Quiroga Pilar Delgado María Mercedes Bravo Carlos Jaramillo | 2010 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2010,16,31: | 5 |
| 11 | Medication adherence in schizophrenia显示文摘Non-adherence is a major problem in the treatment of schizophrenia. Its high prevalence, potentially severe consequences and associated costs make the study of this phenomenon a priority issue. In this article, basic non-adherence concepts of prevalence, consequences, evaluation methods, methodological restrictions of available studies, risk factors and intervention strategies, are reviewed. Studying non-adherence risk factors is a necessary step toward designing adequately oriented intervention strategies. An operative definition of adherence and good knowledge of its evaluation methods are essential to study this phenomenon. Unfortunately, most available studies contain methodological restrictions, especially concerning the evaluation methods, and an agreed operative definition of adherence has only very recently been reached. Knowing non-adherence risk factors, intervention strategies and available evidence on their effectiveness is essential in making treatment decisions in daily clinical practice. | Francisco Javier Acosta José Luis Hernández José Pereira Judit Herrera Carlos J Rodríguez | 2012 | World Journal of Psychiatry2012,2,5: | 5 |
| 12 | Human papilloma virus and esophageal carcinoma in a Latin-American region显示文摘AIM:To investigate the presence of high-risk human papilloma virus (HPV) in esophageal squamous cell carcinomas (ESCCs) in a non-selected Mexican population.METHODS: Cases with a pathological diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus were obtained from Department of Pathology files, at the National Cancer Institute in Mexico City during the period between 2000 and 2008. Slides from each case were reviewed and cases with sufficient neoplastic tissue were selected for molecular analysis. DNA was extracted from paraffin-embedded tissue samples for polymerase chain reaction analysis to detect HPV DNA sequences. Demographic and clinical data of each patient were retrieved from corresponding clinical records.RESULTS: HPV was detected in 15 (25%) of ESCCs. HPV-16 was the most frequently observed genotype, followed by HPV-18; HPV-59 was also detected in one case. Unfortunately, HPV genotype could not be established in three cases due to lack of material for direct sequencing, although universal primers detected the presence of HPV generic sequences. No low-risk HPV genotypes were found nor was HPV-16/18 co-infection. HPV presence in ESCC was not significantly associated with gender, age, alcohol consumption, smoking, anatomic location, or histologic grade. All patients belonged to low and very low socioeconomic strata, and were diagnosed at advanced disease stage. Male patients were most commonly affected and the male:female ratio in HPV-positive ESCC increased two- fold in comparison with HPV-negative cases (6.5:1 vs 3.1:1).CONCLUSION: High prevalence of high-risk HPV in ESCC in Mexico does not support the hypothesis that HPV-associated ESCC is more common in areas with higher ESCC incidence rates. | Roberto Herrera-Goepfert Marcela Lizano Suminori Akiba Adela Carrillo-García Mauricio Becker-D'Acosta | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,25: | 4 |

| 14 | Specific and cross-reactive immune response against Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens in mice immunized with proteoliposomes from Mycobacterium bovis BCG显示文摘Objective: To characterize the immunogenicity and the induction of cross-reactive responses against Mycobacterium tuberculosis(M. tuberculosis) of a proteoliposome(PL)from Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette–Guerin(BCG) with and without alum hydroxide(AL) as adjuvant(PLBCG-AL and PLBCG, respectively) in BALB/c mice.Methods: BALB/c mice were inoculated with phosphate buffer solution, BCG, PLBCG and PLBCG-AL. The humoral immunogenicity was determined by ELISA [immunoglobulin G(Ig G), Ig G1 and Ig G2a] and the cellular immunogenicity was evaluated in vivo by delayed type hypersensitivity. The humoral cross-reactive response against M. tuberculosis was determined by Western blot.Results: Sera from animals immunized with PLBCG-AL and PLBCG showed significant increase in specific total Ig G and Ig G1 antibodies and the presence of cross-reactive antibodies against M. tuberculosis antigens, which were more intense with the use of alum as adjuvant. Mice immunized with PLBCG and PLBCG-AL also showed a specific cellular response in vivo.Conclusions: The cellular and humoral immunogenicity of PLBCG and the capacity to induce cross-reactive responses against M. tuberculosis is in agreement with the protective capacity previously demonstrated by this vaccine candidate and supports the continuation of its evaluation in further stages. | Nadine Alvarez DaymíSerpa Ramlah Kadir Yanely Tirado Reinier Borrero Sonsire Fernández Rubén Cabrera Yolanda Valdes Caridad Zayas Reinaldo Acevedo Luis Izquierdo María Elena Sarmiento Mohd-Nor Norazmi JoséLuis Pérez Armando Acosta | 2017 | Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Biomedicine2017,7,3: | 3 |

| 17 | CagA EPIYA polymorphisms in Colombian Helicobacter pylori strains and their influence on disease-associated cellular responses显示文摘AIM: To investigate the influence of the CagA diversity in Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori ) strains from Colombia on the host cell biology. METHODS: Eighty-four H. pylori-cagA positive strains with different Glu-Pro-Ile-Tyr-Ala (EPIYA) motifs patterns, isolated from patients with gastritis (n=17), atrophic gastritis (n=17), duodenal ulcer (n=16), intestinal metaplasia (n=16) and gastric cancer (n=18), were included. To determine the integrity of the cag pathogenicity island (cag PAI) we evaluated the presence of cagA, cagT, cagE, and cag10 genes by polymerase chain reaction. AGS gastric epithelial cellswere infected with each strain and assayed for translo-cation and tyrosine phosphorylation of CagA by western blot, secretion of interleukin-8 (IL-8) by enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay after taking supernatants from cocultures and cell elongation induction. For cell elongation quantification, coculture photographs were taken and the proportion of 'hummingbird' cells (>15 μm) was determined. RESULTS: Overall 72% (60/84) of the strains were found to harbor a functional cag PAI. Levels of phos-phorylated CagA were significantly higher for isolates from duodenal ulcer than the ones in strains from gas-tritis, atrophic gastritis, intestinal metaplasia and gastric cancer (49.1% ± 23.1% vs 21.1% ± 19.5%, P < 0.02; 49.1% ± 23.1% vs 26.2%±14.8%, P<0.045; 49.1% ± 23.1% vs 21.5% ± 19.5%, P<0.043 and 49.1% ± 23.1% vs 29.5% ± 27.1%, P < 0.047 respectively). We observed variable IL-8 expression levels ranging from 0 to 810 pg/mL and from 8.8 to 1442 pg/mL at 6 h and 30 h post-infection, respectively. cagPAI-defective strains did not induce detectable levels of IL-8 at 6 h post-infection. At 30 h post-infection all strains induced IL-8 expression in AGS cells, although cagPAI-defective strains induced significantly lower levels of IL-8 than strains with a functional cagPAI (57.1 ± 56.6 pg/mL vs 513.6 ± 338.6 pg/mL,P < 0.0001). We did not observe differences in the extent of cell elongation induction between strains with a functional or a defective cagPAI in 6 h cocultures. At 24 h post infection strains with functionalcagPAI showed high diversity in the extent of hummingbird phenotype induction ranging from 7% to 34%. cag PAI defective strains induced significantly lower levels of elongation than strains with functional cag-PAI with one or more than one EPIYA-C motif (15.1% ± 5.2%vs 18.9% ± 4.7%,P < 0.03; and 15.1% ± 5.2% vs 20.0% ± 5.1%, P < 0.003 respectively). No differences were observed in cellular elongation inductionor IL-8 expression among H. pylori strains bearing one and more than one EPIYA-C motifs, neither at 6 h nor at 24 h of coculture. There were no associations between the levels of induction of cell elongation or IL-8 expression and number of EPIYA motifs or pathology. CONCLUSION: The present work describes a lack of association between H. pylori CagA protein EPIYA motifs variations from Colombian isolates and disease-associated cellular responses. | Carlos Alberto Fajardo Andrés Javier Quiroga Andrea Coronado Karen Labrador Nicole Acosta Pilar Delgado Carlos Jaramillo María Mercedes Bravo | 2013 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Oncology2013,5,3: | 3 |

| 19 | Pathological correlations between traumatic brain injury and chronic neurodegenerative diseases显示文摘Traumatic brain injury is among the most common causes of death and disability in youth and young adults.In addition to the acute risk of morbidity with moderate to severe injuries,traumatic brain injury is associated with a number of chronic neurological and neuropsychiatric sequelae including neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.However,despite the high incidence of traumatic brain injuries and the established clinical correlation with neurodegeneration,the causative factors linking these processes have not yet been fully elucidated.Apart from removal from activity,few,if any prophylactic treatments against post-traumatic brain injury neurodegeneration exist.Therefore,it is imperative to understand the pathophysiological mechanisms of traumatic brain injury and neurodegeneration in order to identify potential factors that initiate neurodegenerative processes.Oxidative stress,neuroinflammation,and glutamatergic excitotoxicity have previously been implicated in both secondary brain injury and neurodegeneration.In particular,reactive oxygen species appear to be key in mediating molecular insult in neuroinflammation and excitotoxicity.As such,it is likely that post injury oxidative stress is a key mechanism which links traumatic brain injury to increased risk of neurodegeneration.Consequently,reactive oxygen species and their subsequent byproducts may serve as novel fluid markers for identification and monitoring of cellular damage.Furthermore,these reactive species may further serve as a suitable therapeutic target to reduce the risk of post-injury neurodegeneration and provide long term quality of life improvements for those suffering from traumatic brain injury. | Marcela Cruz-Haces Jonathan Tang Glen Acosta Joseph Fernandez Riyi Shi | 2017 | Translational Neurodegeneration2017,6,1: | 2 |
